Solo Assistant

Maximizing Your Board Game Experience with a Solo Assistant

Your AI Opponent for the Nations At War Series and World At War 85 Storming the Gap

The Lock ‘n Load Publishing Solo Assistant is an expansion module that allows players to enjoy any game in the Nations At War Series and/or World At War 85: Storming the Gap games in a solitaire assistant mode.  Solo Assistant brings an intuitive AI opponent into your battles. Whether you're leading armored divisions through the rolling plains of World War II or commanding mechanized forces in a Cold War gone hot, the Solo Assistant ensures that every turn is unpredictable and challenging.

Designed specifically for both the Nations At War and World At War 85 Storming the Gap games, this system eliminates the need for an opponent while maintaining the excitement, tension, and tactical depth of face-to-face play.
